Not that it's seriously being considered, yet, but how cool would it be if Joss wrote and directed X3?
Very.
Xander: I do have Spaghetti-os. Set 'em on top of the dryer and you're a fluff cycle away from lukewarm goodness. Riley: I, uh, had dryer-food for lunch.

Sweet, the one solution that would make the Halle problem just evaporate like morning dew in the sun. And just imagine Stewart and McKellen speaking Joss' dialogue under his direction.

It would be lovely - although I'd rather he did a Harry Potter movie - by film 6 they'll be the right age and book 6 badly needs a script doctor...

So I watched Him and Conversations With Dead People last night. Him is as gorgeously funny as I remember - the second half of slapstick insanity is of course genius, but the early build is such a sweet parody of the teen films that Buffy comes from. Oddly, like Selfless, CWDP was a letdown - it felt too static and talky, and the rhythm of cutting between characters was off. Looking back I'm glad Amber B didn't return, because that level of emotion would have unbalanced the episode. Shame they could't get the ubiquitous Eric Balfour to talk to Xander, although it might have taken some fast talking; "yeah, you get older in heaven, dude!".

Or have him in vamp face the whole time.
Xander being left out of that episode is yet another potential storyline that they never followed up on.

Wouldn't he be in Hell?

A fine plan...
and book 6 badly needs a script doctor...
... though (while I suspect you may be proved right), I'd love to know how you can tell this from a title alone. (If you were thinking of book five-- Order of the Pheonix-- yes, it needs a script doctor. And an editor. And they're nearly the right age, and Harry's certainly getting angry enough.)

Sorry about that, I know my HP fandom is showing. adjusts costume
Yes, leaving Xander-- and, to my mind, Giles, and maybe some others-- out of CWDP was perhaps not the best choice. Trying to get it down to an hour, I imagine, because there was a lot of talking to do. It's still one of the highlights of the season for me, mainly for Holden.

The soul of the vamped doesn't got to hell, does it? It goes off to wander in some nebulous ether, no?
